Good. They're little sods. I've got a contract with a college and they nest all along the roof. I'm there cutting the grass in an internal courtyard and one clattered into the back of my head, ended up putting my strimmer hard hat on and finishing the job getting dive bombed a few more times. Told the college - nothing we can do. Yes there fecking is!

Anyone see it tonight? "I'm walking the dogs!"

Question. Is it normal to see a butterfly 10 + miles out to sea? Just I went fishing on Friday night, hadn't caught anything so had a face like a smacked arse, telling myself I was selling my gear when I got back when I saw one fluttering by. We set off for the next wreck, I dropped my unbaited day lights looking for mackerel, hit the bottom and bagged a 4.1lb cod. Coincidence to the rational mind, but strange.

My mum went to see a clairvoyant the other night. Believe what you may but the lady knew all sorts of personal stuff, the type of stuff that no one really knows about. She knew too much for me to be skeptical. Sent shivers down my spine!!

England Yorshire Game Fair
RubyTex replied to digginmad2011's topic in Gamefairs, Meet Up's and Events
Wasn't too bad. Seemed bigger than last year. Plenty of stuff to buy, although could have been more clothing stores with better gear IMO. No one seemed to know what was going on with the dog shows not even the judges. Judges were hit and miss. I watched the one I got and she seemed not to like Springers but when her hand was forced ie only 3 dogs in the class, preferred Springers with barely any liver on them. My bitch is probably half and half, so had nee chance even though she was the fittest dog in the class. Feck 'em lol -
The Charity Fishing Competition Sunday 16Th August 2015
RubyTex replied to Ossie n Arch's topic in General Talk
I am provisionally in -
Did you do much off the coast line in Hartlepool last summer ruby? I had a few good trips off the coast up there No not really. I had a few trips out but only caught a tiny flatty and a small Pollock. I even blanked when the Mackerel were in!! There's been a few decent hauls over winter I think, though. I just about packed it in when I decided to take up boat fishing. My first time out I won the sweep with a 10.1lb Ling, and also had a decent 4lb something Cod. The next week my mate fishing right next to me pulled up an 18lb Ling. The b*stard Sorry Walshie....carp rod yea
-
Not shore fishing but loved boat fishing last Summer. Mackerel everywhere. Drop a line with a couple of feathers on and bang you're in within sort of 10/15 seconds. Good fighting fish. Knocked on the head, chopped up and used for the Ling and Cod down below ;-)

Well my dads bigger than your dad!!

I tend to avoid fighting these days. Too old, and I'd probably get sent down knowing my luck. Saying that, I've had a few good ones and a few where I've had my arse kicked. I've gone toe to toe with a brute about 6ft 7 and both kicked hell out of each other into a stalemate. Police came and said they'd been watching it on CCTV lol. Should have charged pay per view lol. But then a skinny b*****d who did some form of kick boxing gave me the kicking of my life once upon a time when I was 15 completely unprovoked. 'Someone' caught up with him the next week though and nearly killed him, fun

Spot on Ross!! Just very interested in a teckel ;-)

Alright lads Does anyone have any Teckel pups to go to a good home? Based in SW Scotland but can travel. Also, good / bad points in the breed would be much appreciated. Cheers

Massive Long Shot
RubyTex replied to border-hunter's topic in Gamekeeping, Conservation & Shoot Management
If I was grafting doing 12 hours + a day and couldn't put food on the table I'd be out of there in a blink. Plenty of money in shooting, but no one wants to pay a fair wage. Mind, the head keeper gets looked after alright! -
How can they justify £25 turning into £400? What a joke. I'm guessing it was council because private wouldn't have a leg to stand on. My mum got one for parking in Argos / Boots / PC World / Matalan shared car park ran by Private Eye and walking across to Asda (literally over the road). The cheekiest bit was she'd been in Argos and Boots too! It got binned, heard nothing else. Tossers.

Yep LTL acorn 12mp....bang on

funny old world. I have a new cousin born at 10:48pm last night, but then lost my Great Uncle at 2am. Bittersweet start to 2015
-
Happy new year all. Bittersweet for me. My cousin was born at 10:48pm, a healthy baby boy. Then at 2am my Great Uncle passed away from pneumonia. Funny old world. With life comes death!!! Atb

Haha. Well it's the dishwasher or I have to wash up......lol
-
Well I spent most of the night tinkering and found the dishwasher at fault. Even though it was off at the main switch it was still wired in and there was water on the electrics!!!! I've dragged it out and touch wood we're back in business. Happy Christmas eh lol
-
It's been working for 6 year lol. Just randomly went off and that's it
-
Well I put the wire across to the garage circuit which is working fine and the whole house tripped. Phoning the electrician in a bit
-
Yeah definitely the trip. Cheers lads. I've isolated everything, tried all ways, had a mate in to have a look and he thinks it's the trip. It'll let the cooker, microwave etc on but as soon as you press on and they use more current that's it done. Money money money
